Ok. For this one you'll need to detune your low E string down to a D.

Repeat the second part of progression, replacing the open string hits between the C/D and D6
with to muted hits on the D A D G strings. Then replace the open hits after the D6 with 3 more
strums of the chord.

Dm C/D D

You must make sure to mute the D String and keep a steady relaxed feel through out this part
of this song. Keep your third finger on the A string and switch between your first and second
on the G string for the change in chords. If you ever see Thom playing live he's never to
worried about clinical accuracy so just go with what you think sounds good.

(The second part of the chorus is just a repeat of the main riff). Keep your second finger on
the G string and switch between your first and third finger for the fret changes on the A
string. The bridge for this song is very tricky. Try to keep a relaxed alternate picking going
for both the chorus and the main riff.

The bridge for this song is very tricky. It has Johnny stricking mutted hits on the
A D G strings whilst using a delay pedal.
